Rumors were plentiful during the lengthy wait, but it was still great to see the final 3G iPhone, unwrapped in all of its beauty. With thinner edges, a plastic back, sleek headphone jack, and the innovative iPhone 2.0 firmware, Apple has exemplified improvements on many of its formerly criticized aspects. 3G is the most demanded feature of the new iPhone, but so is the connection speed: 2x faster than the old models and Apple says that pages load 36% faster than the N95 and Treo 750 (which have been long considered “very fast”). The 3G iPhone will be released on July 11th in 22 countries and the company hopes to fill all stores in over 70 countries with the wonder product, in less then a month afte. Did I tell you the price?$199 for the 8GB model and $299 for the 16GB version. It should sell great on today’s market, I bet.
HTC announced the Touch Pro officially. It’s supposed to be a QWERTY slider sibling of the Touch Diamond which was announced some time ago. Several useful features are laying beneath its glossy black shell such as WiFi, Bluetooth, HSPA including a concrete 7.2Mbps on the downstream, 2.8-inch high quality VGA display, a 3.2 megapixel digital camera, Windows Mobile 6.1 which features the 3D interface of the TouchFLO, a half gigabyte of ROM, and approximately 288MB of RAM. It is certainly not the “world’s thinnest cell phone” because it’s 18.05mm thick. The first lot of HTC Touch Pro cellphones will be released in Europe, late this summer while Americans will probably get it one year later. Too bad!
After a long time wait we were able to lay our hands on the beautiful Samsung SGH i900 as planned. It is the new kid on the block with an astonishing touchscreen among the whole of new entrants in this niche. Its comes with a 5 megapixel camera, has a 240 x 400 pixels display, 16 GB memory, Wifi, GPS and Bluetooth. But what scores the most and make us drool is its beauty more than the technical features on the whole. It may be sweet expensive, though. via Navigadget
ASUS just announced their P320 PDA phone in Taiwan and I must say, I really like what it has inside and the retail price it should go for. ASUS P320 has a 2.8-inch touchscreen display, runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, has a Texas Instruments OMAP 850 200 MHz processor and 128 MB Flash ROM + 64 MB DDR RAM. If the memory is not enough the microSD card slot should be helpful. It’s an EDGE/GPRS PDA phone that also features a 2 megapixel camera, GPS navigation, has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and USB 2.0. Apart from these specs, ASUS P320 looks very special if we are to believe the company that says it has a faster satellite connection no matter where you are. via SlashPhone
If Play.com is not taking us for fools the new very-smart phone from Nokia, the N96 is going to cost $1,200. This is so high in the sky from the retail price Nokia was talking about, $800. The site also have it for pre-orders and they say it should come out on July 31st so you’d better set your alarms to see what’s going to happen then. via Gizmodo
The new Treo 850 specs have been unveiled lately and they look impressive, well at least some features. Palm’s new device works on Windows Mobile 6.1 and is meant to feature a sweet 320 x 320 display, HSDPA 3.6, WiFi, AGPS and Bluetooth 2.0. However, it has a few let downs though such as the small 256MB internal memory, those 32MB of RAM and the 2.0 megapixel camera. At least double them, guys!! Treo 850 is 113mm tall, 60mm wide and 14 mm thick, but I’d say with a few upgrades (double, double, double) it should be an awesome device that would do well against its competitors.
Remember a few years back when Samsung were making all this digital technology and no other company could come close to the quality or style? Well it appears they’re at it again, except this time it’s a mobile phone.
The new 8 megapixel C280 has much class and style, even as a guy I’d be proud to own this. The thing Samsung do well is take the very best technology, doesn’t matter who made it, then put it all together to make one device so much better than the rest everyone wants it and this 3x optical zoom camera phone is no exception. It has 1600 ISO support supposedly taken from the K-Touch and uses Canon’s DIGIC III image processing system, however they do use some of their own technology in this awesome device, such as the CMOS sensor. Considering most other camera phones on the market aren’t even reaching 5 megapixels, this new groovy looking 8 megapixel C280 will be a must import as soon as it hits China later this year. via AVING
Rumor is that a few spicy details about the newest Blackberry touchscreen mobile phone, have leaked online. The handset, that looks a lot like Apple’s iPhone goes by the name of Thunder, BlackBerry Thunder. It was designed exclusively for Verizon and Vodafone so if you want yours think about switching networks, otherwise you may not be that lucky (until hackers get their hands on it).
Rumors about this hybrid CDMA EV-DO Rev. C and GSM HSPA (great when you’re abroad) talk about a 4G solution, and BGR has their bets on LTE. Once ready, the BlackBerry 9500 (supposedly the real name) will be available for costumers all around the world. We’ll try and get you more info about it.
All across the US and UK, Apple sold out all the iPhones, leaving AT&T and O2 with almost no stocks. Statistics say that more than 5.4 million iPhones were bought all around the world, by March, so the demand is obviously very high.
Considering all these, it is very possible that the new 3G version of the iPhone will be presented during Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco, this June. Simultaneously, it will be launched with the 1.2 firmware that will make it more compatible with corporate e-mail, a necessary upgrade if they want it to compete with the BlackBerry or the Treo smartphones. Will keep you posted. |
